    Well, all we have to go on are the results of the LAPD’s preliminary investigation, which has concluded that Lana’s death was an accident. However, the investigation may be ongoing, so until or unless more details are forthcoming, I don’t want to speculate or second guess them. But, we also have to keep in mind that people with mental illnesses like Randy are capable of unthinkable behavior, so I don’t think we can speculate about that either. Obviously, he is in a very bad state of mind to be placed on a suicide watch.

    Founding Eagles member Randy Meisner spent his 70th birthday on Tuesday in a psych ward for threatening suicide after his wife accidentally shot herself in the couple's California home, the Daily News confirmed.
    "He threatened to kill himself," said attorney Troy L. Martin, who represented a family friend in a conservatorship case for Meisner last year.


    That is the current incident, not the previous one.


    However I again state that the police had already attended the house prior to the fatal shooting.
    Right they did... Lol this was the article that said all the mess about threatening. And they since edited it.

    Prayers for Randy.
    People talking about us they got nothing else to do. When it all comes down we will still come through in the long run.

    I anticipate that all of the details about the 911 call domestic violence LAPD visit to their house 90 minutes before she died will come out as part of her family's claim against the LAPD, which I also anticipate will be forthcoming. No matter how she died, the fact is the LAPD responded to a DV call, left the house, and she ended up dead. These are two people with a very recent, public history of claims of domestic abuse, substance abuse and mental illness who the LAPD should know, and they obviously did not protect either party from each other. They should have taken one or both to the station to defuse the situation, or ensured that a neutral 3rd party arrived at the residence before they left. Who knows, maybe these things did happen - we'll see.

    Here's a news link with two sides to the story about Lana's treatment of Randy and vice versa as well as the cause of the misfire. There were spurs in the rifle case that caught on the trigger.

    And yes, it was said that Randy threatened hospital workers with shooting them, as is in this article.

    I hope Randy gets the help he needs now.

    I hope so too redstorm1968. These things tend to cause unheal-able rifts rather than cement them but maybe in this case it'll bring an already broken family closer together.

    I expect Randy will be feeling numb and incapable of any emotion beyond fear and grief for sometime to come.

    As the Police attended the scene, hours before the death, I'm not ready to except their version of events without substantiation. It kind of makes them look bad if they attend a "domestic", leave them to it, then one ends up dead. They're experts at deflecting responsibility.

    That's just my prejudiced opinion. I hope randy pulls through and sees some joy beyond the pain.

    Thanks for posting the Daily Mail link Walshfan88.

    He didn't even have a gun at the time of the alleged threat, so he wasn't much of a danger one would think. People say things when they're upset, if he ever said that. The incident was alleged in a court case by the opposing side; they slung a lot of mud but rarely provided substantiation - at least not for public view.

    Regarding Randy's "mental illness" I'd just like to point out that millions and millions of people have been diagnosed with bipolar depression. Symptoms and severity vary widely. It doesn't mean one is a dangerous lunatic who needs to be locked away.

    I don't know what's true but about 90% of the claims in the Daily Mail article are directly from the people who recently tried to get Randy put under a conservatorship. He had changed his will in the last several years and they tried to get him declared incompetent to oversee his own finances.

    I only hope Randy has people in his life who sincerely care about his well-being.

    if you're in law enforcement and you know the history of this couple, you are obligated to entertain all possibilities.

    If this was an accident, how is it cops fault??? They can't bring anybody in unless they are willing to press charges. Even if Randy threatened her, & she refuses to press charges, if no signs of abuse, there is no arrest. Also, how are they to know there are guns in the closet? Maybe she was reaching to get the gun when it went off. There are lots of unanswered questions here, but none of it is good. But I don't see how LAPD is responsible for this.

    Lots of prayers for Randy and his family. I hope he can truly get the correct medical help he so desperately needs. This is so tragic for all involved. Be well Randy and know there is a light at the end of this.
